Question

Choose the correct option about diplontic life cycle–

• A. It occurs in seed-bearing plants like gymnosperms and angiosperms
• B. The diploid sporophyte is dominant, photosynthetic, independent phase of the plant
• C. The gametophytic phase is represented by the single to few-celled haploid gametophyte
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

The gametophytic phase is represented by the single to few-celled haploid gametophyte. This kind of life cycle is termed as diplontic. Wherein the diploid sporophyte is the dominant, photosynthetic, independent phase of the plant. In addition, all seed bearing plants that means, gymnosperms and angiosperms, follow this pattern.
So, the correct answer is option 'd'.
